Nets Starting to Gain Consistency, and Ground By JOHN ELIGON Published: February 28, 2007 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J., Feb. 27 — In the aftermath of distractions caused by the All-Star Game break and a week of trade speculation, the Nets have quietly put together a three-game winning streak in which they have finally shown signs of promise. 在经过全明星周末及交易传闻的纷扰之後，篮网队已经默默地拿下了三连 胜，正如他们之前所保证的一样。（指状况好转） They beat the Washington Wizards, 113-101, on Tuesday night at Continental Arena for another victory in their surprisingly difficult battle to make the playoffs. 篮网队正朝着他们的季後赛之路迈进，今晚在主场以 113 比 101 的比数 意外艰辛地击败来访的巫师队。 The Nets (28-30) are tied with the Orlando Magic for seventh place in the Eastern Conference standings. The Nets and the Magic are percentage points ahead of the Miami Heat, the N.B.A.'s defending champion, which is in a perilous position because only the top eight teams in each conference make the playoffs. 篮网队目前战绩 28 胜 30 败，和奥兰多魔术队并立东区第七的位置，胜 率高於迈阿密热火队（目前 27 胜 29 败），热火目前处於相当危险的位 置，毕竟只有在分区占前八名的球队才能打入季後赛。 "We're in a situation now with 24 games left where we need to win as many games as possible to put ourselves in a position to be playing after April 18," Nets Coach Lawrence Frank said. "We can still make it a really good ending." Frank 说：「我们现在的状况就是要在接下来的 24 场比赛中尽可能地赢 球，这样才能在四月十八号之後继续拼战（季後赛开始的日期），我们仍 有机会打出很好的战果。」 The Nets are also learning that they can rely on their role players late in games. Forward Bostjan Nachbar scored 23 points against the Wizards, 16 in the fourth quarter. The Nets also hit a franchise record 16 3-pointers. 篮网队在接下来的比赛中知道他们可以倚赖一些功能性球员，像是前锋奶 爸，他今天总共得了 23 分，其中的 16 分集中在第四节，而篮网今天总 共投进了队史最高的 16 颗三分球。 "Lately, I am creating a little bit more just because I'm starting to feel a little bit more comfortable out there," Nachbar said. "If the timing's right and the defense gives it to me, I'll take it." 奶爸说：「在比赛的最後，我表现得越来越好是因为手感开始顺畅了，只 要是正确的时机，对方的防守又让我有机会的话，一切 ok。」 Kidd had a stellar stretch during the third quarter in which he contributed on every point by the Nets during a 19-5 run. He hit five 3-pointers and had two assists over a span of 3 minutes 9 seconds, allowing the Nets to take a 68-62 advantage midway through the quarter. 在第三节的一段期间，Kidd成为镁光灯的焦点，在篮网打出一波 19-5 的 攻势中，每一分都来自於他的贡献。短短的三分零九秒内，他投进了五颗 三分球并送出两次助攻，帮助球队在第三节中段取得 68 比 62 的领先。 其他花絮： 1. Jason Kidd gave the entire arena a scare with 7:07 left when he fell to the floor in pain. It turned out to be a freakish accident in which Kidd, while trying to help up Vince Carter, slipped and did a split. He clutched his groin and rolled on the floor for a few moments as fans stood and watched silently. But he finished the game without a problem. "Eddie House thought I was doing a James Brown," Kidd said. Jason Kidd在比赛剩下七分零七秒时让全场观众虚惊了一场，当他想去拉 Vince Carter一把时发生了一点小意外，看起来相当痛苦地跌在地上。接 下来有一阵子他一直抓着鼠蹊部，而全场观众都站起来了，他们静静地看 着这场奇怪的意外，幸好 Kidd 没什麽大碍地完成了这场比赛。他说：「 Eddie House 还以为我在模仿 James Brown。」（何解...？） 2. Small forward Richard Jefferson will probably go on the Nets' six-game road trip, which starts in Philadelphia on Sunday, but his return to action is still uncertain. Jefferson has been out since Jan. 22 because of ankle surgery. Jefferson 可能会在接下来六场比赛的客场之旅中随队出征，但他是否能 上场打球则是状况未明。他在一月二十二日脚踝动手术之後一直缺阵至今。 3. Small forward Antoine Wright did not play Tuesday night because of a bruised right elbow. The rookie Hassan Adams started in his place. Wright 因为右手手肘的问题并没有上场比赛，Adams 接替他的先发位置。 原文：http://0rz.tw/5d2q2 有些纯粹叙述比赛过程的我就没贴了。 XD --
